Enis Soztutar reassigned HIVE-2241: ----------------------------------- Assignee: Enis Soztutar > Thrift MetaStore interface bypasses authorization checks > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-2241 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2241 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: JDBC, Metastore, ODBC, Security > Reporter: Carl Steinbach > Assignee: Enis Soztutar > > Hive's authorization mechanism works with DML and DDL statements only. > Authorization checks are not applied when a Thrift client directly accesses > the Metastore's Thrift interface, e.g. create_table(), drop_table(), > alter_table(), get_databases(), get_tables(), etc. > Catalog functions such as get_databases() and get_tables() are directly > accessed by JDBC and ODBC drivers. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
